Third Person Sentences

Third person sentences are those sentences in which the core of the predicate, that is, the main verb of the sentence, is conjugated in the third person singular (p. ex. has, knows, laughs, knows) or in third person plural (p. ex. they have, they know, they laugh, they know).

That is, a verbal action performed by one or more people, animals or objects that are not present when the sentence is enunciated is stated.

• "The elderly is it so playing chess ”. The verb is it so is conjugated in the present indicative for the third person plural (
